OpenMausBot is an open-source, local-first desktop chat application (Electron, TypeScript) where each contact is an AI agent powered by Claude or Codex CLIs running on your own machine with your own API keys. Every bot gets its own personality, model, and a cloud virtual machine with a live screen preview, plus access to connected apps like Gmail, Slack, GitHub, and Notion via Composio.

Use cases

  • run a team of AI agents in a chat app on my desktop
  • open-source alternative to Grok bot
  • give each AI agent its own virtual machine to work in
  • connect AI bots to Gmail, Slack, GitHub and Notion
  • run Claude and Codex agents locally with my own API keys
  • manage multiple AI agents like chat contacts
  • automate tasks with parallel AI bots on my machine

When to choose

  • you want a local-first, privacy-focused desktop app for running multiple AI agents
  • you already have Claude, Codex, or Grok CLI logins or API keys
  • you want agents with isolated cloud VMs and app integrations (Composio)
  • you prefer Apache-2.0 licensed open source over proprietary bot products

When to avoid

  • you need a mobile app (iOS is not yet available)
  • you want a fully managed cloud service with no local setup
  • you need code-signed Windows installers or enterprise compliance guarantees
  • you want a lightweight CLI or headless agent framework rather than a GUI chat app
